I had this same discussion with an old buddy on the way back from Havasu last weekend. When I was in high school my neighbor had a fire truck red dually tubbed with big ass Mickey Thompsons in the rear and a pound stereo. At 14 I thought it was the coolest vehicle on the planet. Would love to do a modern take on it.

I went by the AVI yesterday to check them out. They hadn’t open the gates yet but I saw a bunch of bad ass trucks in the West parking lot waiting to get in. I’ll go back this afternoon or tomorrow. Last year it was a great show.

The first image that popped into my head when I saw the thread was a 620 Datsun with fender flares, wide tires, air dam and a GT Spoiler.

I'm dating myself.

Was my best friend's truck... Corvette Yellow

And still best friends!

Never got around to painting the Courier, sold it and bought this after graduation.

RogerThat99 · Apr 7, 2018

My first car / truck. Wish I had some better pics and more pics. by the time I sold it, I had shaved the door handles, wood dash, side swing open tailgate, and a standard tilt bed. I bought it wrecked (it had been rolled). I did all the work myself except body paint (interior, built the lowering kit, door handles, etc... ) myself in shop class. It was nice at the time, but very basic compared to what mini's evolved into.

That's what I got into a few years ago. I have huge stash of vintage van accessories, bubble windows and vintage electronics saved up for a rust free B100 shorty. This van got tagged by a drunk driver while I was trying to finish it. I haven't checked in a few years, but plexi bubble windows were going for crazy money on eBay.

That’s from my neck of the woods. Don cash, pulls a gooseneck double flatbed most days with two customs on it. Wait till you see what will be pulling a 28 fundeck around town for desert storm weekend and postponed eliminator (notta) regatta the weekend after.

Now imagine this ride with a legit rollercammed 500HP small block, on a wheel dyno, that truck ruled the street drags in the late 80s. She had filled in intake ports, pre LS fuel injection day, when no one was doing that yet. That ol girl would top off the front wheels with slicks on it. She was fun to pedal and was a challenge to shoe with street tires.

All the "cool" kids at my HS had T/A's, IROC's and other new cars. I was in a crowd of outcasts with my '67 Camaro, a '70 Camaro and a GTO Judge. One thing for sure, cars kept me in the garage and out of trouble.

All the cool kids at my school drove 4x4 farm trucks to school [emoji202] [emoji106]

Everyone made fun of my gold chevelle. Only had 37k miles on it so my dumbass sold it. And kept the camaro because it pulled p...y.

My cousin had a Luv with just a stockish 327 in it. It was insane even with a stocker in it. Can't imaging something pumped up.

I bought a Buick v-6 for mine, but I never got around to putting it in before I sold the truck.
